Dear Mrs. E. (to protect her identity, I'm only using the first letter of her last name),
You were my kindergarten teacher! I will always remember coming
into your room and how every single kindergarten classroom
had a color theme; yours was green. You had a HUGE classroom,
and I loved when we had snack time, and when we had playtime
and we all played house with the toys you had. It was so fun.
I'd do anything to go back to those times. Middle school is so
much different, and harder. Everything is at this point. I also remember
the year that you stopped teaching kindergarten and moved up
to 1st grade, and another teacher got your classroom. I was
heartbroken! That's where I made all my valentines, and made
all my cute little projects that I still have, to this day. It
was awkward because I knew I would probably never be able to go
into that classroom again, because it belonged to some other
teacher who didn't know me. Everything would be changed around,
and nothing would ever be the same. Thanks for giving
me a great kindergarten year; those were the days.
You were my favorite teacher, and I love you. You taught me
some great life lessons. Thanks again. I'll never forget those days.
-Maria
